01 / ABOUT THE PLACE

About this place

If toast is on the menu for breakfast, Toru Cafe offers several options: a set with toast and butter, jam and cinnamon sugar; a cheese-toast set; or a sandwich set. The listed prices are 650 yen for the toast set with a drink, 850 yen for the cheese-toast set and 1,050 yen for the sandwich set. Choose plain toast for a lighter start, cheese toast when you fancy something savoury, or a sandwich with a choice of mixed filling, ham or egg.

One diner recalled enjoying the cheese-toast set with mash and salad, and found it satisfying as a breakfast. Another praised the sandwich’s egg and vegetables, as well as the texture of the bread, making the egg sandwich a tempting choice for sandwich fans. The breakfast menu also includes sets with a hot dog, a casse-croûte sandwich or curry, each with a drink. There are options beyond toast for a morning meal.

Coffee choices include the House Blend, described as easy to drink, and the French Blend, noted for its sweetness and rich aroma, as well as single-origin speciality coffees. Some diners have enjoyed exploring the coffee selection, while others have spoken highly of the café latte with a sandwich. The menu also lists a coffee float, combining coffee and vanilla ice cream, and affogato, with espresso poured over vanilla ice cream.

Toru Cafe suits breakfast or brunch, and may appeal if you’re looking for a quiet café for a meal on your own. Payment is cash only.
